Building a Community for the Chinese Nation in the Context of National Cohesion

Mr.Fei Xiaotong once pointed out that Han people has played a central cohesive role in the formation of the unified multi-ethnic Chinese nation.The emergence and popularization of the concept of“Chinese nation"is itself a manifestation of national cohesion.The history of unified multi-ethnic Chinese nation since the Qin and Han dynasties has laid the foundation of the community for Chinese nation.The building of the community for the Chinese nation is both a realistic subject and a historical process.Since its founding,the Communist Party of China(CPC)has been committed to pushing forward the establishment of a community for the Chinese nation.The ultimate purpose of fostering a strong sense of community for the Chinese nation,standing firmly with“Five Identities",and enhancing our identity with and pride in the Chinese nation,is to improve national cohesion of China.A community for the Chinese nation is a critical expression for Chinese national cohesion;and to push forward the establishment of a community for the Chinese nation in the new era is one of the key measures to improve Chinese national cohesion.

On the Formation of Chinese Nation as One Community from the Perspective of Reading History——Taking the Liao,Western Xia,Jin,Yuan Dynasties as Research Focuses

The formation of the Chinese nation as one community is not only the result of the interaction of various factors such as politics,economy,culture,and natural environment,but also an inevitable trend in historical development.However,cultural identity and integration are the most important factors.Classics are the essence of national culture,and they have always played an important role in shaping,communicating,identifying,and integrating ethnic cultures.In Chinese history,regardless of whether various ethnic groups were in control of a region or entered the Central Plains,they relied on reading Chinese classics and learning Chinese culture as the basis for their survival,and identified themselves as members of the Chinese nation.This eternal historical law is particularly evident in the Liao,Western Xia,Jin,and Yuan dynasties.Summarizing the reading history of these ethnic groups and societies,learning from their historical experience,and exploring and inheriting the reading cultural resources of the Chinese nation are necessary for the formation of the Chinese nation as one community.

On Forging a Strong Sense of Community for the Chinese Nation and the Continuous Development of the Cohesion of the Chinese Nation

Chinese national cohesion,through hard forging in the long course of history,has strong historical inertia.The theory of"Great Unification"a multi-ethnic state structure under this ideology,the"multi-colorfully integrated"Chinese culture,a constantly evolving and subliming sense of"Huaxia identity"and other historical genes make a far-reaching significance to producing and developing the cohesion of the Chinese nation.The Communist Party of China(CPC)fully appreciates the laws and prevailing trends of history,seizes the historical initiative,and combines them with new historical context,so unremittingly promotes the continuous development of the cohesion of the Chinese nation.On the new journey into the new era,General Secretary Xi Jinping,centering on the epochal theme of"the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation",put forward the original assertion of"forging a strong sense of community for the Chinese nation",pointing out that"forging a strong sense of community for the Chinese nation"as the main theme to continuously promote the construction of the Chinese national community,which has had a tremendous and far-reaching impact on the continued development of the cohesion of the Chinese nation.Forging a strong sense of community for the Chinese nation and continuously developing the cohesion of the Chinese nation reflect the historical consciousness and the spirit of the historical initiative of the CPC in the new era to unite and lead the people of all ethnic groups in the country,to unite the majestic power of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation,and to promote the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation comprehensively.

Four Pillars Underpinning a Strong Sense of Community for the Chinese Nation

Throughout history,there have been close political,economic,and cultural connections between the border areas and the interior of China.To strengthen the unity of the Chinese nation and forge a strong sense of national identity,it is important to draw inspiration from our history.Politically,we must reinforce the memory of national unity and promote the belief that the Chinese nation is a big family and China's territory is indivisible.Economically,it is crucial to continue the historical economic ties between the border areas and the interior,and to deepen economic interdependence in the present era.This will strengthen economic connections between different regions and groups within China and promote unity.Socially,it is essential to facilitate the population flow between dfferent regions,particularly between the border areas and the interior,to promote ethnic communication and integration.Encouraging ethnic groups to live among each other and supporting two-way population flow can further enhance social cohesion.Culturally,we must maintain our tradition of cultural sharing and spread traditional Chinese culture and modern socialist values among all ethnic groups.This will strengthen the bond of the Chinese nation as one community.These four pillars-political,economic,social,and cultural-form the foundation of a strong sense of community for the Chinese nation.

A Sense of Community for the Chinese Nation Embodied in the Musical Dance Art of Early Dunhuang Grottoes

The musical dance art recorded in early Dunhuang Grottoes,though supposed to be created by ancient northern ethnic groups such as the Hun and Xianbei,gives expression to a strong thought of"Chinafication"and a sense of community for the Chinese nation.By analyzing the essence and content of the musical dance art in the Dunhuang Grottoes created during the Northern Liang(A.D.397-460),Northern Wei(A.D.386-534),Western Wei(A.D.535-556)and Northern Zhou(A.D.557-581)Dynasties,and by exploring the contribution of ancient ethnic groups such as the Hun and Xianbei in the formation and development of Chinese nation,this study reveals that the musical dance art in early Dunhuang Grottoes faithfully reflects the community pattern of the Chinese nation featured by"unity in diversity"developed since ancient times,and hopes that the future research and creation may expand their horizon by incorporating the musical dance art of early Dunhuang Grottoes into the system of contemporary Dunhuang dance.

Fostering a Strong Sense of Community for the Chinese Nation and the Chinafication of Tibetan Buddhism

The objective of fostering a strong sense of community for the Chinese nation is to establish the Chinese national identity,which is the symbol of a modern nation-state,for all Minzu in China;and the precondition of it is to define"China"and"Chinese people"with preciseness.For that sake,we must abolish both Han chauvinism and narrow-minded local ethnic chauvinism,and reaffirm the staunch belief that all 56 Minzu are inseparable parts of the Chinese nation and that all people of these 56 Minzu are Chinese people.To adapt Tibetan Buddhism to the Chinese context is not to sinicize Tibetan Buddhism,but to adapt it to the requirement for the development and progress of the Chinese nation in a new era,as well as to make it a fantastic catalyst for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.For the sake of it,we will not only make Tibetan Buddhism a crucial part of Chinese Buddhism,but also include Han and Tibetan Buddhism as the most important identity of Chinese Buddhism,so as to integrate Tibetan Buddhism,Han Buddhism,and Theravada Buddhism inside China and strengthen a sense of community for Chinese nation in China's Buddhist community,which will serve as an important part of forging a strong sense of community for the Chinese nation.

The Discussion of Connotation and Denotation of the Consciousness of the Chinese National Community

In order to promote research of the Consciousness of the Chinese National Community(CCNC),it is essential to unravel the historical logic and practical foundation of the concept of Chinese National Community(CNC).This necessitates a thorough analysis and contemplation of its connotation and denotation.The CCNC gradually emerged during the continuous development of the CNC.It connotes that all members of the CNC can consciously recognize the objective existence of the CNC and they cognitively,psychologically,and behaviorally have a sense of identity with and belonging to the CNC.From the perspective of the denotation of CCNC,its structural basis lies within the plurality and unity in the configuration of the Chinese Nation.The consciousness of national identity serves as its political expression,the Chinese cultural identity as its spiritual foundation and the consciousness of a community with shared future as its inherent attribute.

中华民族共同体学——铸牢中华民族共同体意识学科化探索

习近平总书记在中共中央政治局第九次集体学习时指出:“把铸牢中华民族共同体意识作为新时代党的民族工作的主线、作为民族地区各项工作的主线。”优化学科设置,深化中华民族共同体重大基础性问题研究,是当务之急。民族共同体是中华民族发展进程中独特的现象,已经超出了恩格斯在《家庭、私有制和国家的起源》中对氏族、胞族、部落、部落联盟、民族、国家这一人类共同体发展脉络的描述,需要认真研究,并对马克思主义共同体理论作出贡献。中华民族共同体发展有着与众不同的内生动力和环境条件,内生动力主要包括经济、政治、文化、社会;环境条件主要有文明形态、地理条件、文明演进模式、不同文明竞争等。为研究独具特色的中华民族共同体认同,迫切需要建立中华民族共同体学,研究中华民族共同体的形成、发展及完善过程与机理,把中国独具特色的经验推广给人类,造福世界。

学习型治理:中国式现代化的源头活水

知识是人类社会最为重要的财富,是解决各种社会公共问题的基础,也是国家治理与善治的支撑。人类社会的发展就其本质而言是知识的积累、扩展与深化。国家治理需要掌握与运用人类社会领域的全域知识,处理解决各种模糊复杂而又密切关联的劣构问题。党的十六大以来,中国国家治理者逐步探索形成了政治局集体学习制度,对经济、政治、社会、文化、生态、科技等各个社会领域的知识和问题展开深入的理论学习和实践研讨。这些集体学习具备强烈的历史与全球导向,可以深化治理者对人类社会与世界格局的理解与认知,为国家治理进行知识储备,有力支撑了改革开放以来国家的健康发展。在百年未有之大变局的时代背景下,国家之间的竞争集中体现为国家治理者在全域知识上的学习、理解与运用,国家治理者的知识广度和深度决定着国家治理的绩效和成败。

日本国立公园发展历程比较研究及其启示——以富士箱根伊豆国立公园和知床国立公园为例

日本作为亚洲最早建立国家公园的国家,其国家公园的管理经验与发展模式可为其他国家尤其是正在建设国家公园的国家提供借鉴。富士箱根伊豆国立公园和知床国立公园是日本知名的国立公园,该文从两者的发展历程及其表现可以得出二者的发展模式不同。在二者差异较大的观光业发展基础上,可以将研究对象扩大为不局限于观光业的与外界的经济互动行为。文章通过综合运用比较分析、案例分析等方法,分层次从两个国立公园与公园外界(个人、团体、政府)的相异经济互动模式比较中,汲取可利用经验,以期为中国国家公园尚未完全定型的与公园外界的经济互动模式提供借鉴。

新时代中国高校民族研究智库:功能定位、困境与出路

高校民族研究智库对推进我国民族工作决策科学化、民主化和法治化具有重大意义。当前我国高校民族研究智库建设存在学术研究与智库研究结构性冲突的观念困境、高校管理行政化与智库管理社会化需求冲突的治理困境、高等教育与高校智库建设功能冲突的功能定位困境、智库成果认定与职称评定冲突的晋职晋级评价困境等问题。本文认为应从观念更新、保障机制和智库人才合作交流机制等角度去突破困境,牵引高校民族研究智库建设的高质量发展。具体应从三方面入手:第一,要破除对“决策咨询报告”的错误认识,鼓励高校教师形成“经世致用”“学以致用”的思想观念,积极参与国家和地方政策的研讨过程,发挥专家学者的智慧智识;第二,从建立健全承接党和政府研究任务的保障支持机制、强化智库人才评价和产品质量评价相结合的评价机制、提升研究人员获得感与幸福感强化激励机制等方面提高智库投入产出比率,完善高校民族研究智库建设的保障机制;第三,建立健全智库人才交流合作机制。

新疆民族研究与叙事中的“情”与“理”

“情感”与“理性”在民族研究与叙事中起着重要的作用。“情感”与“理性”二者之间关系把握得好,可以得出客观、科学的结论,否则就可能走向事物的反面。在“把铸牢中华民族共同体意识作为党的民族工作和民族地区各项工作的主线”的思想指导下,在新疆民族研究与叙事中,只有把握好民族形成与发展过程中的“源”与“流”、“以文证史”与“以文代史”、民族研究方法及理论继承与借鉴、中华文化与各民族文化、国家与民族等关系与跨境族群的情感表达,才能得出客观、科学的结论,才有可能解决“文化润疆”所要达到的从根本上切实解决政治认同、人心向背的“五观”认同的问题。

Overseas Chinese and the Chinese Nation Expansion of Multidimensional Space

In the span of thousands of years of history,especially during the confrontation with western powers in the past centuries,the Chinese nation has transformed itself from a"self-being"to a"self-conscious"national entity,forming a multi-level and multi-dimensional community structure.As"the marginal"in the"Chinese cultural circle",visible and intangible,overseas O Chinese communities have always maintained a dynamic relationship with the"core",and overseas Chinese have constantly expanded the scope of the Chinese national space through alternative channels of culture and society.By analyzing the progression of three phases,namely the period before the 1850s,1850s-1950s and the period after the 1950s,this paper examines the role of overseas Chinese in the multidimensional space expansion of the Chinese nation.We deem that overseas Chinese maintained varied degrees of spatial connection and participated in the construction of the national homeland in multiple scales such as ethnic identity,cultural identity,economic ties and social networks;The sense of ethnic community of overseas Chinese is embodied in the inclinations toward the ancestral country,multi-dimensional identification and the concept of righteousness,showing the characteristics of pluralism and consensus;Due to the variance of affecting factors,such as migration time and intergenerational relations,geographical distance and cyberspace accessibility,policies of the country of origin and transnational interaction,there are distinguishable traits between different groups of overseas Chinese and the"core"of the multidimensional space of the Chinese nation.Overseas Chinese not only expand out,but also bridge and tie up the multidimensional and three-dimensional space of the Chinese nation.
